Mercedes Benz SL-Class Roadster convertible (2012 – ) expert review
Mercedes’ flagship roadster sticks to a formula of subtle sophistication and effortless year-round usability. With a feel-good factor that few cars can compete with, the SL500 has plenty of ownership appeal, though it’s too mute in its feedback to appeal to keen drivers.

Mercedes-Benz B-Class hatchback (2011 – ) expert review
The second generation Mercedes B-Class MPV is more handsome, bigger inside and better to drive than its predecessor. However, the ride is firm and the automatic gearbox is indecisive and slow to shift.

Mercedes C-Class Coupe (2011 – ) expert review
At last, the Mercedes C-Class Coupe has arrived to take on the Audi A5 and BMW 3 Series Coupe. Its handling and comfort is top-drawer, while its engines impress.

Mercedes G-Class 4×4 (1981 – ) expert review
The G-Class is the Mercedes that seemingly can’t be killed off, its appeal to rappers and premiership footballers signaling its return to the UK. Possibly the coolest off-roader on sale, the G-Class is unstoppable off-road, yet it’s well made and has equipment to match an S-Class.

Mercedes SLK Roadster convertible (2011 – ) expert review
The third generation Mercedes-Benz SLK Roadster is the sportiest and most engaging version yet. All those inherent SLK values of comfort, refinement and luxury are still there, but it now feels even more like a junior Mercedes-Benz SL.

Mercedes GL-Class 4×4 (2006 – ) expert review

Mercedes Viano MPV (2004 – ) expert review
The Mercedes Viano is one of the plushest people carriers around, with an upmarket image, lots of space and versatile seating. The V6 versions don’t hang around either.

Mercedes B-Class MPV (2005 – 2011) expert review
The Mercedes B-Class is one of those invisible cars that’s really quite good. Practical, spacious, well-built and reliable, the B-Class is easy – but costly – to own.

Mercedes C-Class estate (2008 – ) expert review
The Mercedes C-Class estate has the sort of cachet that its rivals would kill for. It’s fabulously built, has a rock-solid image and is practical too. But running costs are high.
